ABSTRACT:
A connector receptacle for insertion in openings of a printed circuit board to receive other contact components, such as the contact pin of a cooperable connector. The connector receptacle has a tubular body portion which fits into the circuit board opening, and has an external shoulder that functions as a stop during the inserting movement. The body portion contains a spring contactor for engagement with the other component, as the contact pin of the cooperable connector. For retaining the connector receptacle firmly positioned in the circuit board, it has at least one external resilient spring retainer finger, and preferably two fingers which extend lengthwise of the tubular body and engage the circuit board at the opening thereof. The retainer fingers are movable independently of the body, and are formed integrally with the body. The connector receptacle is constituted as a metal stamping, which can be precisely formed to very close tolerances while at the same time being economical to produce.
